NRMCA, Build With Strength Exhibit at Wildfire Resilient Structures Conference

With the collective support of the California Nevada Cement Association (CNCA) and the California Construction and Industrial Materials Association (CalCIMA), Build With Strength sponsored and exhibited at  the recently held WiReS Conference in San Diego. With a goal of addressing the increasing fire risk arising in the built environment, the conference highlighted topics involving applied sciences, knowledge and technology advancements in order to promote the importance of resilient structures. Wildfire seasons over the last few years have been the most destructive in history, each year more destructive than the last, and wildfire severity is expected to further increase due to climate change. These issues illustrate the need to improve our built environment and increase the resilience of buildings to wildfires.
